Someone shows you the mirror without knowing he’s doing it
God knows now and then you need to look into it
Who holds you as if our very existence depended on it
Who is willing to lose the world as if all that mattered was you
Who arrives from another town in the wee hours of the morning, lighting you up
Whose voice and touch form the rhythms of your life as you listen with your eyes closed
Who sings with you believing he can’t sing not knowing he’s doing a sterling job
Who anticipates the little things you worry about like the eggs running out
Who reminds you to take your meds in time
Who steps on an unknown path with you without a doubt that everything will be fine
Who gives his breath to your voice so you can be heard far and wide
Who sees all your brave attempts at hiding the things that hurt
Who says thank you to the green mint before picking a few leaves from it
Who chooses to walk beside you as if regardless of terrain life was a long walk
Who holds your hands in his knowing the precious gems of another love inside your fist
Who knows these gems bring sparkling tears and you will never let them go
Who loves you back as if you were the only woman in the world
As if love was the only substance the world was made of
Some say God gives with one hand and takes away with another.
I see Her giving with both hands open, leaning into me
